Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Mars Collides with Earth_1
"I hear you are planning to jointly invest with several other companies. I’m interested and would like to have a piece of the action," said President Liu, a big-shot property tycoon, with a chuckle.
Gu Yan gave a mild smile. "Indeed, we are preparing for the project. It will be launched in a year or two. President Liu, you can attend the investor’s conference at that time. This project is a grand plan of the Gu Clan for next year. We are quite particular when choosing partners. We have decided to collaborate with a well-known company in Europe."
The spectators brightened at the news. The European company in question was one of the top 500 in the world.
The fact that this company had chosen to partner with the Gu clan showed that the project had huge monetary potential. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have come over from Europe to Asia.
"President Gu, I also wish to attend the investment conference."
"I will also come."
Gu Yan flashed a confident smile. His aim tonight was to leak some inside information to these people, to attract more partners for the future investment. None of these companies were top tier, but they were financially strong. Together, they would suffice!
"The Gu Clan’s grand plan for next year and the collaboration with the mentioned company? What a joke! Young Master Gu, have you left out some crucial details?" a voice full of ridicule and taunting interrupted suddenly. The festive atmosphere was abruptly extinguished.
Ye Lu turned pale, her body frozen.
She hadn’t expected that Third Young Master Jun would actually show up to disrupt the event. And, under such public scrutiny, he brazenly spouted taunts full of provocation, the air crackling with argumentative tension. He was a rebellious and willful man.
The few big shots shivered, hastily stepping back to create a passage for the Third Young Master Jun and Gu Yan to face each other directly.
Dammit, their luck was terrible tonight. Just so happened that sparks flew when the two of them clashed. Both men had a towering presence; none dared to offend either of them.
The host of this banquet was insane. They clearly knew that these two men were love rivals and mortal enemies. Why invite them both? Were they aiming for a brawl? (Host: Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! How can I stop the Third Young Master if he decides to come!)
The other guests who were chatting got excited at the sight of the upcoming confrontation. They stopped their conversations and turned their attention towards it, ready to join in the excitement of the brewing drama.
The last time, President Gu of Gu Group had stolen Third Young Master Jun’s wife. Was Third Young Master Jun here to win back his pride?
Gu Yan watched Third Young Master Jun slowly approach, his expression icy cold.
"Third Young Master Jun, what’s your intention?"
Third Young Master Jun’s gaze traveled from Gu Yan to Ye Lu, finally resting on their entwined arms. He sneered.
Ye Lu trembled, feeling his gaze as cold as a knife’s edge.
"Nothing, I’m just reminding everyone not to fall for the trap. The collaboration between the mentioned company and the Gu Clan is not a comprehensive collaboration with the head office, but with one of their subsidiaries. I believe everyone understands the difference between the two. Young Master Gu, it’s not very decent of you to mislead people," taunted Third Young Master Jun.
Upon hearing this, the excitement of those big shots instantly fizzled.
Gu Yan smiled lightly, "You’re right. But, this subsidiary is considered the most important one under the mentioned company. You could say that it represents the intention of the parent company. Besides, many major European companies see promise in Gu Clan’s stocks. This shows the potential of the project."
"Promising? The Gu Clan’s main business is in real industry, it has never set foot in the electronic industry. Not one of your partners is truly in the electronics industry."
